Hey, Joe-- where you gonna run to now?

Or, as they'd say in Mad, Blecch!

Lieberman lost-- everyone except Joe knew he would-- so he's going to run as an "independent." As a Nader voter, I'm especially glad to see it.

What do you think now of your would-be VP, Democrats? After six years of denouncing Ralph for daring to run against the sacred party, when Joe doesn't get his way, how much loyalty does he show?

(Nader was never a Dem, and most of the people who voted for him weren't, including me. But even though a quarter-million registered Florida Democrats voted for Bush in 2000, Nader "lost" Gore the election with a total in that state of 96,000. Right, assholes?)

So the next time you Democrats who are as tiresome about Nader as the Repubs who still bring up Clinton's BJ (in other words, the majority of both backward sects) start to bitch again about Ralph and those of us who voted for him, look instead at your boy Joe, and ask yourselves if you're ever going to see the light about this worthless party that keeps giving you candidates who don't give a fuck about you. And if more of you had listened to us-- and we voted for an anti-war candidate in 2004 who called for Bush's impeachment-- it might have been an actual three-way race in 2000, and who knows what could have happened. One sure thing: whatever it was, it couldn't have been any worse than what the Republicans and Democrats have given us since.
